500 Dash lights copied

Copied Dixiedog's lighting idea. Found LED lighting tape at an auto audio store. Sold by the ft but can be cut/soldered every 3".

I used three strips, one across the top and 2 down between the levers. The lighting tape has adhesive backing so when I finished soldering them together and to some wires I simply stuck it to the metal under the dash. I tapped into the headlight wires so they will always come on when it's that dark.

First day I got the rtv I went outside after work to test drive and boy was it hard to see what I was doing. This was a great idea Dixie:thumbsup::thumbsup:

Great addition. I can't believe Kubota didn't have a little lighting in the dash area from the factory. Lights made it a lot better to drive at night.:thumbsup:


Next stop is backup lights. I've got the clear LED light strips I just need the ambition to put them on and hook up a pressure switch so they come on when I shift into reverse.

Once I finally find a switch that does what I'm looking for I'll be putting them in. I'll make sure to get some pics for you.
